<p>I am looking for a solid Pre-Law/liberal arts/Political Science curriculum. Which of these colleges that I was accepted to would suit my academic interests the best and provide a good overall experience? A sort of ranking of the Political Science prestige of each of these would help! </p>
<p>Williams College
Boston College
UCLA
USC
UNC-Chapel Hill
NYU
Wake Forest
Bucknell</p>
<p>i dont know if someone who is happy at williams could be happy at nyu (and vice versa)- they are completely opposite schools! huge vs tiny, middle of nyc vs middle of nowhere, the social life is completely different, etc.
besides the strong academic departments (which all of the schools have), it depends on personal preference. do you want a huge school? urban? sports emphasis? frat life? campus? etc</p>
<p>i am more concerned with which offers the most opportunities and best political science program. they are all well renowned for academic rigor, but which would be the best for my specific academic interests?</p>
<p>also in terms of the campus, to add to the criteria, i prefer a rich and active environment and prefer a nice-looking campus. also looking for a cohesive student body... main concern is still the academic liberal arts and/or political science program at those respective colleges.</p>
<p>I would pick your top three, go look at what poli sci classes they offer each semester. Check out the professors, what are their interests and foci, and how does that line up with yours. Go deep and research if youa re serious about poli sci.</p>
